Exporting Files to FM Server Hard Drive

[Steve Ladd]

I have a database running on Server 8 Advance, it contains a script which generates text files. I would like these files to be created to the server hard drive.

When I run the script I get an error stating the file cannot be created. The script is trying to find the path on the local computer.

Is there a way to get the files created without have to mount a share point on the remote computers?

Can you specify scripts to run that stay local to the server?

This doesn't answer your query - but you're doing something I'm trying to figure out how to do

... to get a specific record to export to a text file and would be happy to have it end up on the local computer, named as the value of another specific record... Preferably as a button action from the layout. Sorta like - print that record to disk as a plain text file, contents only.

I'm generating HTML/Javascript code segments and need to email them as attachments, so they need to be contained in a text file to preserve line length and not have the email act on them or interpret them.
